Saint-Bris Sauvignon
| The location of the Saint-Bris vineyards allows the Sauvignon grapes to fully express their range of aromas and the minerality of the soils. They are often planted in colder areas in order to enable a slow ripening and therefore the best expression of the vineyards' strong character. | |

This wine has a pale straw colour and its lively aromas are characterised by the scent of bruised blackcurrant leaves. It also has aromas of exotic fruits, freshly-cut grass and citrus fruits. It has a good structure with a fruity length. Best drunk young, as an aperitif or with fruit-based deserts.

Western Daily Press, Ned Halley, 15th Nov. 2014'Now all proper white burgundy, I keep telling everybody, is made from chardonnay. Here’s the exception...It’s that good, a sauvignon of unique power and intensity but still with the hallmark grassy-nettly zap of this most distinctive grape...Brilliant. Give it an oyster...' The Independent, Terry Kirby, 30th Nov. 2014'...terrific bottle from Burgundy, normally strictly Chardonnay country. While this is typically crisply mineral, there are some unexpected floral notes. Try with soft goat’s cheese or seafood risotto...' |
